People,
I have looked at the Sway and i3 cheat sheets but I can't find anything
- there are Hot Keys for rearranging windows: stacked, tabbed, toggle
split - but shouldn't there be one for a grid? ie four windows would be displayed like:
+-----+-----+ | | | +-----+-----+ | | | +-----+-----+
five would be:
+---+---+---+ | | | | +---+- -+---+ | | | +-----+-----+
at least i3 definitely does not support something like this out of the box. This looks more like a predefined layout which is supported by other window managers like dwm or awesome.
I thought that might be the case - oh well . . As I get more familiar with the setup, I will see if can create some sort of "macro" to do what I want . . I just worked out that in config I can use "bindsym ... exec" to run shell scripts so I will see how I go . .
At least with i3 you can script just about anything using the IPC interface: https://i3wm.org/docs/ipc.html
